Looks really cool! Great job on the lighting and anatomy. The pose looks very dynamic and natural.

Nice work. The lower horse half is very well done and looks quite natural. The upper human half, however, has a bit of a stiff look to the arms and the hair should flow more naturally even if it is blowing in the wind. Nice work, thanks for sharing it with us.

thanks a lot
I could have put more work into this, especially the human part, it was mostly done as a study for a painting.

The piece itself shows great potential in many respects; the anatomy exercised here shows good understanding of both horse and human anatomy; the shading on the human torso is great (especially the darker portion in the center), though I think it's primarily due to the color modification done in paintshop; it's hard to judge the graphite quality itself when it's been edited.

The hair is alright though it contrasts with the rest of the image awkwardly in quality.

The forearms are also a little weak, departing from the relative photorealism used in the torso.

thanks a lot, for such a long and constructive comment.
there are several places I could have put more work into, this pic was mostly done as an experiment in centaur anatomy (studies for a painting)
